Welcome to the Columbus Rescue Mission!
Praise the Lord!
One of the joys of Rescue is when God changes a life, and a person is so dramatically changed by Him that everyone can’t help but notice. My good friend Beth is a wonderful testimony to the change that faith in Jesus brings. Lost in beer, Jesus did a work in her! Through the New Life Program at CRM, and Bible study at her church, Beth received the biblical training that would help her deal with the coming consequences of her past sin.

My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart keep my commands; For length of days and long life And peace they will add to you. Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart, And so find favor and high esteem In the sight of God and man. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:1-6

The ministry of Rescue at the Columbus and the Living Water Rescue Missions belongs to the Lord. For the 13th consecutive year, Alan Shawn Feinstein will divide $1 million among hunger fighting agencies nationwide, using it to help them raise funds during March and April, 2010.
Only donations or pledges received from March 1st to April 30th, and from use of the Feinstein challenge, will be counted. These donations can include cash, checks and food items (that can be valued at $1.00 per item or pound) as well as pledges, as long as they are obtained in response to our challenge. So in light of that, we are participating in the Feinstein challenge again in 2010, and challenge you to help us feed the hungry. Donations to both missions will apply.
The million dollars will then be divided proportionately among all agencies complying with the terms of the challenge (a minimum of $250 and a maximum of $40,000 to all participating agencies).The check will be mailed to us by August 1st, 2010.
So he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, 'Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them.' His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.' Matt 25:20-21

PS. We could use some new mattresses at the mission. There is a new type that doesn’t have seams for bugs to hideout in. The cost is about $120 new, and eventually I could use 50 of them. I can purchase them, and they will ship at little or no cost with some new steel beds that are being given to the missions. You could help with 1 or 5 or all of them, any number you like. Call me if you would like to help with this.
